More than 100 junior soccer players from around the Mackay region have participated in a three-day soccer camp to improve their skills and maybe be chosen to train with some of the greats of European club A-C Milan.

Technical director of the A-C Milan Soccer Academy, Andrea Icardi (who was one of the coaches at the camp) says the pool of talent in Mackay is impressive.

"There is some potential in the kids," says Mr Icardi.

"Compared to the players we've got in Sydney, they're already advanced... they are really strong, technically they are good enough, obviously tactically they have to improve but one of them he was naturally with something you know?
